I haven't managed my WordPress site in over a year. I never really liked
WordPress, I'm not a big fan of web-based WYSIWYG editors. A co-worker of mine
recommended Pelican to me, and I've been very pleased
with it so far. Being able to write blog posts in markdown, and having a
website that doesn't rely on a database were top priorities, and Pelican gives
me both of those. Also, it's written in Python, which makes it much more
attractive to me than other options like Octopress
(which seems to be abandonware anyway). I plan plenty of content in the coming
weeks, including a write-up on how I am managing the site's content using
GitHub and SaltStack.
